Explosive samples were damaged by a low-velocity gas gun at different impact velocities. Ultrasonic examination was carried out with a pulse through-transmission method. Spectra analyses were carried out by using fast Fourier transform. Characteristic ultrasonic parameters, including ultrasonic velocities, attenuation coefficients, spectra area and master frequency, were obtained. The correlation between the impact damage and ultrasonic parameters was analyzed. A damage coefficient D was defined by considering a combination of ultrasonic velocity and amplitude. The results show that ultrasonic parameters can be used to quantitatively assess the damage extent in impacted plastic bonded explosives..展开更多

Brazilian test is used to study the tensile properties. The microstructure of polymer bonded explosives and its evolution are studied by use of scanning electronic microscopy and polarized light microscopy. Polishing techniques have been developed to prepare samples for microscopic examination. The failure mechanisms of polymer bonded explosives under different loads are analyzed. The results show that interfacial debonding is the predominant failure mode in quasi-static tension, while extensive crystal fractures are induced in compression. With the increase of strain rate, more crystal fractures occur. Low velocity impact also induces extensive crystal fractures.展开更多
